    Fuel leak

    Thanks for your informative responses. I cannot say that I have checked/changed fuel hoses during my ownership, so perhaps as you suggest Clem the recent work was just just final straw and they were about to go anyway. I have just checked the garage/van again, having been out all day, and...

    Fuel leak

    Hi all, I wonder if you can provide some suggestions. I have owned my crew cab for over 10 yrs, and in all that time I have not had any fuel leak (that I am aware of). Recently, I dropped the van into a garage to get a disk brake conversion on front, and also electronic ignition fitted. When...

    Sold *SOLD* 1971 Westy with Teardrop Caravan

    Absolutely lovely combo, alas I only have one garage so struggling to think where I would store the tear drop. There's no mention of hob/cooker, is that in one of units behind front seats?

    WANTED. Crewcab

    I may be interested in selling, though I haven't really thought of a price yet. Only considering because I have seen a camper on here that I am interested in. If you're interested let me know, and I can PM you some more pics, but mainly just ones I have from an article when it was in VW C&C a...

    New door cards: JK any good?

    Hi Not sure what type you are thinking of ordering, but I ordered these earlier in the year to replace my front ones and they were a good fit. I did order new clips & bungs to fit them tho. http://www.justkampers.com/beige-front-door-cards-beige-vw-t2-bay-1967-1979.html

    50 today !

    My crew cab is 50 today so thought I would include pic to share. Nearly as old as me but probably in much better shape! And coincidently my Dad is also 90 today, so Happy Birthdays all round.

    New door cards: recommendations please!

    Thanks for that vote of confidence Moseley, good to hear. For your info, Newton Commercial do pvc backing sheets to place onto the door card to help the water resistance, so that may be an alternative as you will have to take the door card off anyway to pva it. It gives you another option...

    New door cards: recommendations please!

    Can I resurrect this question, rather than start a new topic? Has anyone used the JK door cards, and if so are they okay? I am looking for a pair for my crew cab, and notice that the JK ones are £90, whereas the Newton Commercial ones are £167 ...

    Overhead Lockers

    Wow, I love that cargo netting set up, looks very practical. And right now I am entertaining going back to a camper, and there is a lovely Early tin top which I like the look of, but I was concerned about it's practicalities. If I did go down that road then I might be copying that cargo net idea.

    Relative newbie, but still here after 4 yrs. (Did have a '74 camper for 15 yrs before tho.) But toying with idea of selling, only to go back to an (early) camper from a crew cab!

    Insurance Providers

    RH for me too. What I can't understand is that I had to make a claim last year, after having an unfortunate head on with a cow at slow speed in the New Forest, resulting in an ins claim in the several 000's, and yet my premium this year was exactly the same as last! I called to check that...

    WANTED Early Bay Tin Top Bus

    A bit more than your preferred budget, but looks pretty solid and ready to go. And no, I have no link to the vendor, just browsing myself for my possible next bus! http://allclassics.co.uk/listings/1971-vw-early-bay-window-kombi

    Is there a early VW light grey other than L345

    Cheers, tho can't take credit for it as it was in that condition when I imported it from Tenerife a few years ago. (And unfortunately not looking so lush at the mo, as I had a run in with a cow in the New Forest a few months ago, so front end knackered !! Finally going in for a very expensive...

    Is there a early VW light grey other than L345

    Here's a pic of my van in L345 if it helps. But I agree with your comments about beige tint. When choosing a tonneau cover for it, I went with brown as I thought that complemented it well. If the pic is too light to get an idea of the colour, I may have some better ones.
